Looking back: Baby's schedule at 3 months

Schedule at 3 months? Non-existent based on my experience.

I actually tried to write it down once but on the very next day, only morning wake up time and night sleep time was consistent and that's because at 3 months, she practically established it for us.

I was feeding her non-stop then. I made it a point to feed her every 1.5 hours when we're at home where she has unlimited access to the boobies. That means I might end up feeding her half an hour after previous feeding if it looks like she wants to nurse.

When we're out, usually during the weekends, 1.5 hour was my normal guide.

I couldn't understand how mommies ended up waiting for 2 hours before the baby's next feed when Brie seemed to want to/need to nurse way before the 2 hour mark. The only time she'd stretch to 2 hours is during night sleep.

DIY: magnetic fishing game

I'm not even sure if Brie is ready for this game at 16 months but I know that she currently loves magnets. So instead of buying her a fishing toy, I decided to make a set out of whatever materials I already have. I used the following: foam sheets for the fish paper clips to make the fish magnetic a tiny magnet sewed into a cloth pouch ribbon for the fishing line a chopstick for the fishing pole glue to stick things with, scissors to cut things with, and finally a marker to draw the fish details and make them cute Cut out fish from foam sheets. Best to cut out one and then use that as a template for the rest. Then you put a paper clip on one fish and glue on another foam fish on top of that. Use a marker to draw the fish details. I don't have step-by-step pictures for the "hook and line" that I made. It's very simple: get a tiny magnet, put it in a piece of cloth, sew it sealed, then tie a ribbon on that and onto a chopstick. That...

DIY Felt Dress Up Dolls Series: Snow White

Brie hasn't actually seen Snow White. Can you believe that? It's on the list. She knows Snow White because of her 5-Minute Princess Stories and because of her Disney Princess Duplo Lego Set. I sewed the puff sleeves but I highly recommend gluing them on like Cinderella's puff sleeves. I just wanted to see how it would turn out sewn. This is what Snow White looks like assembled.

DIY Felt Dress Up Dolls Series: Ariel

Ariel's has been Brie's favorite "dress". She calls the bra "boobs". I love it. It's also the easiest to pair! How can you miss a fish tail? This was very straightforward. Bra. And tail. All I added was a bit of design on the top of the tail. This is what Ariel looks like assembled.
